Environmental Toxicology and Human Health
Summary
This is an editorial introduction to a journal special issue on environmental toxicology and human health. The abstract is too brief to determine specific content, but the broader issue covers how people and animals are exposed to mixtures of environmental contaminants daily. It is not specifically focused on microplastics and appears to be a false positive in this dataset.
Humans and animals may be exposed on a continuous daily basis to a mixture of environmental contaminants that may act on several organ systems through differing mechanisms [...].

Micro(nano)plastic toxicity and health effects: Special issue guest editorial
Researchers summarized the state of microplastic and nanoplastic toxicology research, noting that while studies in animals show these particles accumulate in tissues and trigger inflammation, oxidative stress, and developmental harm, the actual health risks to humans remain largely unknown and urgently require further investigation.
Ecotoxicological Impacts of Micro(Nano)plastics in the Environment: Biotic and Abiotic Interactions
This editorial or overview paper addresses the ecotoxicological impacts of micro- and nanoplastics across both biotic (organisms) and abiotic (physical and chemical) dimensions, framing the problem as a multifaceted challenge involving environmental contamination, ecosystem health, and potential human health risks. It underscores the need for integrated approaches across disciplines and stakeholder groups to fully understand and manage plastic pollution. The work contributes a broad conceptual framing for ongoing research into microplastic hazards.
